Dear Santa
As the season for giving approaches, the Cooley Gallery is happy to announce our annual holiday exhibition of art and objects that would be a joy to wrap or to receive. Paintings, sculpture, jewelry and other fine craft from the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries will be offered. The gallery is also proud to support critical aid to the disadvantaged children and families of our community. We will donate five percent of the profits from all sales made by December 18th to the Child and Family Agency of Southeastern Connecticut to assist in their on-going mission to help meet the holiday needs of the less fortunate. Dear Santa will open with a gala reception on Thursday, December 2nd from 5-8 p.m. at the Cooley Gallery, 25 Lyme Street, Old Lyme, Connecticut. The exhibition and sale will run through January 3rd, 2011.
